About The Audacity Of Hops
Real change is here! No longer will American beer lovers be forced to choose between those quirky, eccentric beers of Belgium or the explosively flavorful IPAs of the United States. We have brewed the change we have been waiting for! Liberally hopped to an audacious degree, our Belgian IPA reaches across the aisle to bridge the seemingly contradictory brewing philosophies of the old world and new. Our beer uses generous portions of German Pilsner and Vienna malts to give it its hazy golden color and rocky white head. Dry hop additions of Amarillo, Centennial, Glacier, Cascades, and Spalt put aside their differences to form a delicious coalition. Floral grassiness dominates the nose with fruity hints of bright citrus well represented. Its spicy flavor comes largely from our house Belgian yeast as well as generous doses of German Hallertau and Tettnanger hops in the kettle. These aggressive flavors are complemented by a soft yet determined bitterness and a full but dry finish. All of these characteristics come together in a nonpartisan spirit of cooperation to form a beer that is both righteously flavorful and drinkable. Enjoy!
